The University of Central Florida (UCF) American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) student chapter achieved remarkable success at the Southeast Student Symposium, held in March at Florida Atlantic University, winning a total of 12 awards. Their standout performance included clinching first place in the Concrete Canoe Competition, where they outperformed 13 teams, including the University of Florida, which had dominated the event for 13 of the past 14 years. This victory qualifies UCF to compete at the ASCE Civil Engineering Student Championships in June in West Virginia, where nearly 20 teams from North America will vie for the title. Edward Collazo Borges, the UCF ASCE chapter president, expressed the significance of this win, stating that it was a monumental moment not just for UCF but for all schools in the region. The competition, which combines engineering excellence with racing technique, challenges students to build a canoe from concrete and compete against others. UCF's team dedicated significant time to enhance their project, resulting in a successful outcome. In addition to the Concrete Canoe win, UCF also secured first place in the Concrete Cornhole and Temporary Traffic Control competitions, showcasing their diverse skills. This year marks a historic achievement for UCF, as they last won the concrete canoe competition in 1995.
